Default 99-00 OEM fog lights... painted or unpainted????

A friend of mine is getting some OEM fogs for his 00 civic. They come grey from the dealer but we were wondering if most people paint them or just leave them grey. His car is dark green. Any pictures or comments of painted and unpainted OEM fogs would help a lot too...

Thanks guys.

unpainted looks better than actually having them painted the same color as the car. but dont the OEM lights come in like 2 or 3 different colors? i dont know but i have the grey ones.

Unpainted, or if you must paint them.... go with a flat black to match the grill.
